7.HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT AND POSITIONING THE COOKER
In order to make sure that the cooktop is perfectly horizontal, especially on old flooring, we advise you to install your stove on a wooden or cement base, the height of which will allow you to bring the cooktop to a level in accordance with its environment or your own requirements.
If the appliance is on a base, all necessary action shall be taking for the appliance not to fall.
Each stove is equipped with adjustable feet that allow you to compensate for differences in the floor level.
Remove the drawers, set the stove in place, screw up the legs so the stove rests on the outside legs and adjust the height.
The Fig. 1 page 16 shows the minimum recommended distance from the cooker to nearby surfa- ces (see chapter 1.2. Clearances to combustible construction).
Above the cooktop level a gap of 12" should be left between each side of the cooker and any adja- cent vertical surface. For
Adjacent work surfaces should be level with or below the cooktop surround not the pan supports (Fig. 8).
We recommend a gap of 36 1/2" (927) mm between units to allow for moving the range.
If a flush fit is required, fit the cooker up to the unit at one side then fit the unit the other side. Do not box the cooker in; it must still be possible to move the cooker in and out for cleaning and servicing.
A minimum space of 30" (760 mm) is required between the top of the stove and a horizontal com- bustible surface.
Any hood should be installed in accordance with the hood manufacturer’s instructions.
For safety reasons curtains must not be fitted immediately behind the cooker.
